The radio this morning announced that some of the petrol stations were giving away half price petrol. listeners had to ring in to find out which were participating. they called it "april fuels days" wouldnt beleive the amount of people ringing up.

Not so long ago a few independent petrol/gas stations in Sydney and Melbourne actually did that to protest the control the big petrol companies had.

The greyscale one was good last year, mac forums loss of color?, almost had the OP do a format

I was wondering what that meant til I hovered over all of them. That's pretty much awesome.

I searched the FAQ ...then realized it spells out April 1

I remember the cool fake front page a few years back, it was full with elaborate easter eggs. My favorite new item on there was:

"Apple renames Bonjour to Aloha and drops french language support".

 

[designgeek]

gmail auto pilot is hilarious! check it out. I almost fell for thier time machine thing last year.

Opera introduces face gestures

Happy April Fool's Day and Happy Birthday to Apple.

We should have gone all out with this "make the forums look like all the childish forums on the Internet" thing and added random, HUGE picture signatures to everyone's posts.

 

[Morod]

It spells out April 1, Have a nice day . That was awefully sweet of them.

+1! Thanks, MR,

Someone may have beaten me to this, but we appear to have our google.com April Fools Day Joke here...

In other news:

Dictionary.com's new president, Rick Wagoner, has made an offer to buy the CADIE page from Google.

"We already did have a definition of the word 'dorky,' but this one's a lot better," Wagoner said.

Trust nobody

April Fool's Day is an annoying holiday. I'll be grouchy all day as the idiots around me try to "fool" me with their incredulous stories.

I think next year I'll just call in sick. You know, because you'd expect that - you being a fool and everything.
